The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 9

Eric Ferguson hung up the phone and rubbed his temples. His face was glum and he felt extremely irritable.

He dialed Nicole's number, but as expected, she did not answer and even blocked him.

Eric slammed his phone so hard on the desk that it made a loud clang. He looked at Mitchell coldly.

"Go find out where Nicole is. I want an answer in fifteen minutes."

Mitchell felt like he would lose his job and hung his head even lower.

"Mr. Ferguson, I had someone check Ms. Nicole's whereabouts. She doesn't seem to be in Atlanta.

There's no trace of her anywhere."

Eric’s thin lips were pursed, and his face grew darker. 1

Half an hour later, the Ferguson Corporation deleted the statement involving Nicole and issued an apology, stating that it was a misunderstanding. However, they did not clarify a word about the marriage between Eric and Nicole.

Even so, the effect of this move was still very minute. Eric browsed through Nicole's social media page and found her posts about their life together. It was so close to him, yet so foreign.

[Hubby came back early today! *smiley face* ]

[It's raining...I wonder if Hubby has an umbrella with him...]

[Hubby picked me up from work-]

[Breakfast especially prepared for my hubby!]

i..

Eric unconsciously scrolled to the bottom and suddenly felt that their three years of marriage were not completely blank, but filled with this woman.

He noticed that he had never understood her and had never participated in her happiness. 2

Every one of her posts was about him, and the latest statement she released at 8:00 am today was emotionless, unlike her previous posts. 1

It was as if this was the end of their marriage.

He suddenly felt as if a piece of his heart was missing. His chest felt empty. 1

Eric wanted to continue scrolling, but the page suddenly stopped moving. When he refreshed it, all those posts he had just read suddenly disappeared. They were all deleted, leaving only the cold statement from this morning. 1

The number of likes, comments, and retweets kept increasing.
